The design commission, which has been dealing with significant construction projects since 2016, has set itself the task of securing the architectural quality in Dresden. The Commission has no decision -making authority, but a positive report can significantly increase the chances of success of construction projects in the committee. More and more builders are bringing their plans to the consultations, since the influence of the Commission continuously grows, as the Sächsische reported.
